When processing PERF_RECORD_AUXTRACE_INFO several perf_evsel entries
will be synthesized and inserted into session->evlist, eventually ending
in perf_script.tool.sample(), which ends up calling builtin-script.c's
process_event(), that expects evsel->priv to be a perf_evsel_script
object with a valid FILE pointer in fp.
So we need to intercept the processing of PERF_RECORD_AUXTRACE_INFO and
then setup evsel->priv for these newly created perf_evsel instances, do
it to fix the segfault in process_event() trying to use a NULL for that
FILE pointer.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
